Indeed, a forced upgrade ought to be a rare occurrence. It should be remembered that updating to the latest version of Windows is often not an individual user’s choice. Many organizations, in fact, mo

Sean is absolutely correct here. Just upgrading to the latest version is not an answer. In an organization with enterprise applications and stringent data security policies, ordinary users--even senio

I should have mentioned I use Jabber 12.6. The phone works pretty well, but the IM doesn't. As I and others have mentioned JAWS is so slow that it isn't worth using. I'll see if I can get 12.8.

All: I know at least one other member of this list is a Jabber user. Jabber, a Cisco softphone product, is really wonderful and is mostly accessible. When office phones are not accessible or only marg

Let me encourage you to beware of CodeFactory. I bought the CodeFactory Eloquence about two years ago from CodeFactory, mostly because I had become used to Eloquence with JAWS. After installing and re

I am unaware of an add-on like text analyzer; however, the font change, attribute change, indent, color change can all be picked up (along with more), by pressing CapsLock, control, and D. I created a

I have a template Excel spreadsheet that I need to use over and over. It does some rudimentary computations, but mostly it is a repository for data. I have problems with one column. In that particular

Using another screen reader does not help. It is an Adobe problem. If one prints to paper and scans it back in, running standard OCR fixes the problem. I like the solution another lister suggested, na

All: I have searched rather diligently, with no success, for an NVDA function that I saw, a couple of years back, was under development/consideration for either an NVDA feature or an add-on. I do not

For those of you who do not know, Jabber is a very accessible (now) soft phone. For the most part, it works great with NVDA as a telephone. I, however, have trouble reading and responding to Jabber ch
